"Lucky you remembered it was oak," he told Kay as they re- futed a solid walnut antique. "Now If you can just remember some more identifying details." "But the buyer may have al- ready changed it," Mary wailed. "He could have put on new hard- ware and painted it. How can we recognize it?" "And how will we know if it has the papers in it?" Kay put in. "Hans says they are nailed in a secret panel in the back.'' "We'll just have to buy 'em and bust 'em," Ted decided. "There will be a lot of $5 washstands UNIVERSITY OF TORONTO School of Nursing For the .tession 1942-43 the follow IIIK courses are offered. 1.

It was amazing how many wash- stands came out of attics, cellars, barns and garages. There were big ones and little ones; wash- stands falling apart and wash- stands almost as good as new. They rejected all that were not oak, but they scraped paint off of fifty or more to make sur they were not overlooking tha right one. And they paid for re- painting. Joe Benton supplied the money. "I'm. in on this thing too," he said. "I'm going to find that catalyst or grow old trying. And I'm not doing it for you, Kay. This stuff may work with other chemicals, too. Your dad may have made one of chemistry's big- gest discoveries. We'll probably- get a Nobel prize on it." It was Joe, too, who decided that Hans Stadt should be told that they had discovered acci- dentally and with a minimum of damage, that Wondosoap would explode, violently. They found the old chemist puttering in the lab. "Mr. Stadt," Kay began, "you have probably wondered why we are so anxious to find this form- ula Dad discovered. It's not only that we want to make more of the product. We've a lot of it on hand . . ." Hans nodded, waited for her to continue. "We tried selling Wondrosoap as a cleaner, and we had a little bad luck." The old German laughed. "It ate holes in clothing, no?" "Why, yes!" Kay was surprised. "And it took paint off wood and metal, no?" "Then you and Dad knew it would do these things. It isn't really a cleaner?" "Yes, we knew that.' 1 "Did you know." Benton inter- rupted, "that Wondrosoap has ex- plosive properties? That it is more powerful than TNT?" Hans nodded again. "Yes. We knew that, too." * "It is a long story. Miss Katie," Hans said. "I don't know when your father discovered this sub- stance you call Wondrosoap. May- be when you were a little girl. He had worked on it for years. When he sold his invention to the automobile company, he had enough money to spend for ex- perimenting. I came with him then. "I had come to America from Germany after the war. I was in that war. I made poison gas to kill men. 1 thought I was doing right. 1 was serving my country, just as your American ANNOUNCEMENT Although there U ao < . VI..

"When I came to America I found these people were not my enemies, but ray friends. They gave me work. I sent money to bring my Frieda and my boys here. We were happy. I became a citizen." He paused to fill and light a battered briar. "My boys grew up here. They were Americans. My wife died. She wanted to be buried in Am- erica, our new Fatherland. My sons married. I was alone. "The depression came. I was getting old. I lost my job. Things were not so good. But in Ger- many they were worse. I met your father, Tim Donovan. He gave me work, a place to live. He was my friend." # Kay and Joe waited patiently. This was Hans Stack's story, let him tell it as slowly as he wished. "Tim Donovan trusted me. He told me about his invention, his discovery of a new explosive. We worked on it together. It was not always easy. Sometimes we bought chemicals instead of food. "From my brother, in Germany, I heard of changes that were going on. Long ago, your father said this war must come. He could see that. I could see it, too. " 'When it does come, Hans, 1 he said, 'it must not find us like it did in 1917. America must be ready. There must be shells, bombs. We must do our part.' "For years we worked, until we finally were successful. We have n explosive a super-explosive that is safe and easy to handle. It can be stored, in boxes like like soap. It will explode only when mixed with acid, alcohol and water. You will find all three are necessary, Mr. Benton." "I discovered that, rather sud- denly," Joe agreed. "As long as those reagents are separated," Stadt went on, "there is no danger of any explosion. That makes this product great. It will burn but fire will not detonate it. If an enemy tries to destroy it with another ex- plosive, he could do no more than scatter it. Even if he tried acids, it is unlikely that he would think f alcohol and water." "How did Dad intend using it?" Kay questioned. "In delayed explosion time bombs," Hans said. "In the fac- tory in, Germany during the last war we made them. Acid and explosive separated by a thin met- al partition. The acid eats through the metal Boom!" "Tim's bombs were better. The acid cut a truni: spring, holding the separata panel. The pane) i;i, aid and alcohol and water mix thoroughly, it reaches the ex- plosive . . ." "And it's good night for block* around," Benton supplied. Ka\ was still puzzled. "Why did you and Dad keep all this so secret? Why didn't you sell the idea to the government? Why label it as 'Wondrosoap the all purpose cleaner".' 1 ' "That was Tim's idea. The gov- ernment wasn't as interested in explosives when he discovered this as it is now. There was danger that some spy might dis- cover our secret. If he had an- nounced his discovery publicly, he could not have kept control of it for you. He was thinking of you. Miss Katie, always. "As a somewhat eccentric in- ventor and a crazy old chemist, puttering around with a soap that would clean anything, we were left alone. There was no danger. Tim built his factory away out here, so that there would be room to expand it when the time came. You own all the land around. "Tim had these 'Wondrosoap' labels printed for the cans. He priced it high because he never intended selling it, as a cleaner." "That was my bright idea," K-.y admitted. "What if someone had used acid . . ." "That's unlikely," Joe com- mented. "And the cans, Hans, You can take the lids off and drop them into a 3-inch shell case very nicely, can't you?" "That was part of the plan. We made a million cans of it so you would have plenty to sell at once. Miss Katie. We made it when we could buy raw mateials cheaply. We bought in small quantities, so no one would get suspicious. Not even Mr. Flynn knew how much we had in the warehouse." "After Dad died, Mike knew how many, but he didn't know what!" * * Ted tossed the wreckage of washstand No. 75 into the fast- growing pile of kindling wood. "I don't think we're ever going to find it, Ted," Mary said. "You have pried the backs of all these washstands, smashed them into splinters, and what have we got? Twelve old newspapers, three love letters, two pictures ' "And five blisters!" Ted added. "Well, only five more to go, today. But there'll be more tomorrow. Eighty washstands at $5 apiece. That's running into money." H tackled another with hammer and chisel. "That looks like the one w sold " Mary began. Wood splintered. Nails and screws squeaked protest*-. The back of the washstand bent, then snapped free. A large manila en- velope, tied with a black shoe- string, fell at Ted's feet. (Continued Next Week) Cast Knitting On And Off Loosely Army Needs Socks for Boy* With Long Feet Always there is the plea, almost the wail, of the knitting room at- tendant: "Be sure to cast on loosely; be sure to bind oft loosely." When I talked recently to -a group of soldiers who had receiv- ed socks and sweaters, all agreed that it seemed such a pity to break the edges of the socks and the necks of sweaters. Here is a rule, which, if fol- lowed, will banish the cause foi such complaints: "In casting on use one inch of wool for every stitch. Most knitters cast on by making a loop over the thumb or forefinger of the left hand and knitting it with the right-hand needle. Measure off 48 inches for this left-hand thread; cast 16 on each of 3 needles'. I hear you say you cannot possibly use that much it is too loose. You can; it is not too loose. If you use steel needles, make the first loop tight, and the others looser. Try using wooden needles; try using sjze 6 or 8 needles and then changing to smaller ones. Try casting the whole 48 on a large needle then knitting off 16 on ach of 3 smaller ones. Take any sock you have recent- ly made; stretch the top as far ae you can; measure a man's leg Are you sure it ia large enough? Remember' that the least feeling of a top around the leg becomes very painful after hours of wear. For this same reason, never join wool in the sole. No matter how thin you think your joining is, it will thicken after being thoroughly wet. As for casting off, here is a never-fail method. Knit 2 stitches together, pull the new stitch out at least '2 inch long, and put it back on the left-hand needle. Knit that and the next stitch to- gether, pulling the new one out long, and putting it back on the left-hand needle. Continue across in this way until all the stitches are used. This makes a double edge that will not ruffle, and will not ravel easily even if broken. And one last word: now and then, knit a pair of socks for a boy with real long feet. The Army has just lots of them! V. S. in Christian Science Moni- tor. GAY TWO-PIECE STYLE By Anne Ac?ams A summer star is the two-piecer . . . practical, cool, comfortable.

Old Hats Become Best 1942 Models This year's latest models in hats for British men and women are coming from relics formerly et aside for the old clothes man. This became apparent as re- ports filtered in that milliners and hatters were scurrying through the streets competing with the used clothes collector- for the old head-gear. The cast-offs are realizing any- things from ten cents to $1.20 each. Once bought, they are tripped, sterilized, cleaned, reno- vated and then exhibited as 1942'e top priced latest models.
